Fixed sound by updating the kernel, moving to kernel 3.1 rc 4 fixed webcam
Video drivers still an issue, even in normal desktop use. Using
http://ppa.launchpad.net/xorg-edgers/ppa/ubuntu made the it more usable and videos are working better still not much on 3d though
Same model (deskpro 4530s)
Needed to delete the 2 HP partitions to make space for an Ubuntu/Windows dual boot.
Installed Ubuntu 11.04 64bit; Linux 2.6.38-11-generic
As of yet, it seems to work well - did get rid of 'unity' from the start.
Minor Issues discovered:
Touchpad on/off switch [left/upper corner of pad] does not work (a software switch can be implemented if I cared for it)
Fingerprint reader (I lived without it in the past, so don't care)
100% Ubuntu: Laptop (Mint 13), Desktop(11.10), Server(10.04)
